Same here, I assumed the helmet had a crest, which would have been okay too. The dead bird fits with the battle standard some of the goblin infantry from the same line carry, though. It seems like the goblins have a hate for crows (maybe because dwarves train crows as messengers or spies…)

Lovely sculpts (especially Kev Adams, always a favourite), great painting that leaves me in awe, and off course excellent to see the rise of another Orkish warband! The green tide surges ever forward!

I really like those old miniatures, so much character compared to the newer ones, and your painting makes them even better.

Excellent, always loved the old citadel trolls, as mentioned earlier so much more character than the modern ones.

Lovely, cover me green with envy  :D

Thanks for the kind praise those who posted.

Here are some guys that capture early 90s Warhammer for me: cartoony, silly, not particularly grim or dark, and full of vibrant colour and what is probably quite British humour.

Very nice! I love those old models.

As you like 80's/90's orcs and goblins you might like (if you haven't seen them already) the Longsnout Orcs which you can either get as stl's from the sculptor (https://www.myminifactory.com/users/Pebetron) or find them on Etsy or some other 3D printing services- they have a very nice throwback style and humor while being a bit more modern in detail etc.  I bought a unit of 10 and had a lot of fun putting them together and painting them (and I reviewed them on YouTube in case you want to journey down that rabbit hole: https://www.youtube.com/@Frugalmax ).

Keep posting!
